In May,1958 we graduated from elementary school into a greater field of knowledge, high school. We entered high school in the fall of 1958 with Mr. Walter L. Creel as our home-room teacher.

Our most important project was our annual, the SESPRISCHOAN. Our editor was Linda Grady. This was a job which began in September and con- tinued until the material was mailed in February. We all worked diligently on this. Finally it was graduation time. Even though we had looked forward to this time for many years, there were mixed feelings among the students- some happy, some sad, some relieved but all regretful. We realized that our days at Seven Springs were ending and we would drift apart to face a new tomorrow. LINDA GRADY Historian 21

Pwflfwf It has been given unto me as the chosen one of this great and good people, the class of 1962, to dream strange dreams and see strange visions of the glories of the years yet to be. As I look into the land of the future, the first thing I see is the city of Seven Springs, now a large and prosperous city. As I come down Neuse Boulevard, I see ADAMS' SUPERETTE, I guess EDDIE took after his father. It looks like a large business. At the corner of Carefree and Twisting Avenues Ifind the most prosperous beauty salon of the time, operated by BERTI-LA BENTON. Oh, there comes KAY DAWSON, Hollywood's newest actress. She is here for the premier of her first movie, COME A LITTLE CLOSER opening tonight at the World Central Theater operatedby BOBBY TAYLOR. By the way, GERALD JACKSON is starring with her. As we tU.1'l'1 off at Spring Road we see a large brick building. Why it's a bank. Its President is JACKIE BARWICK. The private secretary of the firm, CHARLOTTE PRICE, is also the top-notch bankteller in the state. Next we see the famous Spring House Hotel operated by MAJOR JONES. A super-jet Ford is turning in the drive. It is Elvis Presley's most famous songwriter, JOYCE FULGHUM. To the left we find GURLEYS' LAB-ORATORIES.Tommy has just discovered the newest rocket-fuel. Incidently LINWOOD MARTIN is his astronaut who tests only for TOMMY. We are glad to know that he made another succesful trip. As we approach the new highway constructed and designed by FIELDS' ENGINEERING FIRM owned by GLENN FIELDS, we see the newly built high school. JERRY DALE is the highest paid professor at the school. WILLARD BARWICK is the coach. By the way, his team has not lost a game in three years. Next we see where the SEVEN SPRINGS JOURNAL is published. The editor of this famous magazine is MARCELIE LEE. She and her husband like this business. By the way, MIKE GRADY was the highlight of her last publication. He is the top driver at the Indianapolis Speedway. As we leave the city and drive toward the cotmtry we see a huge brick home. This is the home of Mr. and Mrs. Donald Price. I wonder how LINDA is liking housekeeping. Oh, there goes CLYDE DALY in his Thtmderbird. He is a traveling salesman. Next thing in sight is a big farm owned by FRANKLIN PRICE. His cows have their own crossing at the highway. The farm adjoining FRANKLIN's is owned by Mr. and Mrs. Bobby Whitfield. They seem to have had good luck with the tobacco this year. SALLY is an expert on the farm. Well that gets everyone except GAIL McCULLEN. She is now in France with her husband, who is in the Air Force. I suppose I'd better head for the airport where I go on duty as an airline hostess for the Pan American Airlines. I am glad to report that each of my classmates is doing fine.
